Hello all, I've just bought a machine called bling king crazy. Got it home and everything was fine, but now it won't accept any coins. Can anyone help as I really don't have a clue, if there is a way to solve the problem?

I have no experience in the internals of the machine.

Cheers.

open the machine and check that the coin mech is plugged in and try cleaning it, Also check that the routing plug is plugged in this is a little plug that slots into the mech to tell it where to put the coins failing that you may have a faulty mech but see what other advise comes before taking my word for it as im fairly new to it myself!
hope this helps.

have you i think its well funny that in the last three months at least 40 newbies have brought fruit machines

I've been told by an engineer that if a machine slowly starts to accept less and less coins, it can also be the power supply at fault.

Strange but true.

Remove the coin mech there is a spring loaded flap on it open the flap spray some polish on a cloth a wipe inside the flap both sides now replace the mech, make sure machine is unplugged before disconnecting replacing cables.

if its less n less £ coins then its more likely that the mech is due for a calibration.


or a sledge hammer lol

I've cleaned the mech, then tried it still nothing all coins go straight through. So I turned off the machine, disconnected the plugs, took the maech out of the machine and cleaned it again. Put it back in (plugs all in correctly) and still the same. I gently pushed the spring loaded flap and it took a pound coin but now it won't accept a thing.

Looks like a sledge hammer is the only available option.

Does anyone have an MPU 5 service manual?
